Some people might find the penis jokes for Freud to be a bit reductive, since Freud wrote on an enormous amount of topics. These people are wrong. Penises are funny.

Marx thought that the ideal society would have no class hierarchies (i.e., there would not be a division between those who owned businesses, and those who sold their labor to the business owners), and no state. He didn't spend a lot of time describing exactly what this meant, because Marx did not believe in Utopian thinking. He thought history was a process, and we should work towards freedom from oppression in the society we live in, not attempt to imagine wholesale what a perfect society would be like from scratch.
